Fitness fans can snap up their own pocket "personal trainer" by taking advantage of a special offer to mark the Bert Williams Leisure Centre's second anniversary.

Wellness Keys

The special "Wellness Keys" are now on sale and can be pre-programmed with bespoke exercise routines tailored for the user - meaning people can enjoy a workout designed to help them achieve their goals.

And to mark the centre's second anniversary, customers can purchase their Wellness Key for just £10 - down from the original price of £30.

Darren Crane, fitness trainer at the Bert Williams Leisure Centre, said: "The Wellness Key is a personal training tool. People's workouts are recorded to the key for their instructors to review, and we can design individual workouts to give them the best chance of meeting their fitness targets - whether that is to build muscle, lose weight or just get fitter faster."

The Wellness Keys are available at the special price of £10 until Christmas Eve.

The Bert Williams Leisure Centre has proved hugely popular since it opened in December 2011, with around 400,000 visitors a year - up 167% in comparison to the old leisure centre which it replaced.

Hundreds of people turned out at an open day yesterday (Sunday 8 December, 2013) to showcase the facilities on offer at the £18.6 million centre, including an 8 lane, 25 metre swimming pool. a studio pool, sauna, dance studio and health and fitness suite.

There are also 4 squash courts, a sports hall which can be used for badminton, basketball, netball, volleyball and 5-a-side football, dedicated gym equipment for older people and a special gym for youngsters aged 8 to 15.

The centre is named after legendary footballer Bert Williams MBE, originally from Bradley, who made 420 appearances for Wolves and was capped 24 times by England.
